$22 for Swamp Boat Tour for Two (Up to $48 Value)

The swamp tour explores the privately owned Manchac Swamp, a protected wildlife area that outlaws fishing and hunting. As the boat drifts through the bayou amid trees draped with spanish moss, travelers are likely to see alligators and other swamp creatures passing peacefully by or sometimes even approaching the boat. Along the way, guides also spill facts about the wetlands and the nearby Cajun town of Frenier.

Cajun Pride Tours

Devoted to preserving Cajun culture by sharing it with the public, Cajun Pride Tours’ knowledgeable and passionate guides lead groups on tours that explore area swamps, plantations along the Great Mississippi River Road, and the historic districts of New Orleans. They also stroll along city streets in the French Quarter in New Orleans, the Garden District, and areas that display the lingering effects of Hurricane Katrina. On boat trips, groups can spot friendly gators while floating through the Manchac Swamp—a protected area that prohibits any hunting, fishing, or tickling of the native wildlife. A short drive past the swamps drops tourists off near the area’s plantations that are notable for their history, architecture, landscaping, and insight into Creole culture.

The Groupon Guide to: Color Theory

If you're a visual artist, you've probably got a box of crayons, a crayon sharpener, and a tiny ceramic cup you store the crayon shavings in so you can later melt them into a new crayon color that you call "garbage." You've also probably got a good understanding of color theory. If you're not a visual artist, here's some information that will be new to you:

  • A color wheel is a circular diagram that selects the best colors for your work of art based on which colors you land on when you're blindfolded and stabbing with a knife.

  • Staring at warm colors, such as red, dark red, and reddish black, makes your body feel like it's been covered in a wool blanket and then buried from the neck down.

  • Staring at cool colors, such as cool red, makes your body feel like it's been covered in a loose layer of gauze and left to get even cooler beneath a nice, shady tree in the middle of nowhere.

  • Complementary colors are defined as "any two colors that, when combined, produce a small egg containing the color ‘prison-shoe gray.’"

Which popular color is best known for hatching from an egg?

  • It's fun, informative and a good time. Guides are interesting, and there are plenty of gators to see.

  • You really feel like you're in a swamp...he alligators are so plentiful, we were greeted by a few before we even got on the boat!
